TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of chips, in particular to a three-phase inverter power chip and a preparation method therefor.

BACKGROUND

Three-phase inverter bridges are widely used in power electronic devices such as frequency converters, motor driving systems, inverters, etc. The circuit structure view of a three-phase inverter bridge is shown in FIG. 1. The three-phase inverter bridge includes six Gallium nitride (GaN) high electron mobility transistors (HEMT). Where drain electrodes of three high-side GaN HEMTs are connected together, and for each bridge arm, source electrodes of the high-side GaN HEMTs and drain electrodes of the low-side GaN HEMTs are connected together. The GaN HEMT has excellent characteristics of high voltage, high frequency, low conduction loss and zero reverse recovery. The use of GaN HEMTs in the three-phase inverter bridge may reduce the number of components in the three-phase inverter bridge, reduce the difficulty of packaging, and moreover, the working frequency may be increased, the output waveform is improved, and the inverter efficiency is increased, etc. However, the six GaN HEMTs chips in the three-phase inverter bridge are electrically connected by bond wires, which causes a low integration, a complex package, and excessive bond wires will introduce excessive parasitic inductance, thus affecting the working efficiency of the circuit.
